The 16th annual Brunswick Area Teen Center Scoop-a-thon fundraiser, held April 24, 2024 at Gelato Fiasco in Brunswick, raised $12,455 for the Teen Center – breaking the record for income and sponsorship!
The Scoop-a-thon has brought in more than $100,000 for the Teen Center program over the last decade and a half. The raised funds ensure that area teens have a safe place to recreate after school, hang out with friends, eat a ton of food, and play lots of games.
“The Scoop-a-Thon was amazing and I loved my first year experiencing it! The teens had a blast and I think it positively impacted them to see the community come out to support them,” said Teen Center Director, Taylor Carter. “Thanks to the community, customers, scoopers, Teen Center Advisory Committee member volunteers, staff, the Bowdoin College Rotaract members and our many, many sponsors! And a special “THANK YOU!!” to Gelato Fiasco for sponsoring this event for 16 years.”
